Preaaaaaaach! If I could give you a standing ovation I would. I don’t think I have ever read anything more relatable. I literally kept sitting here while I was reading this going ” DID I WRITE THIS?” Being chronically single is awful and nobody ever gets it. I literally get told the same cliche things over and over again and it’s not helpful. Nobody understands and people make me feel like it’s my fault. I’m really glad to see somebody else has some of the exact same thoughts as me.
Thank you so much for writing this. I agreed with you on so many levels. It felt like I could have written it except I’m 26. Nobody ever talks about this. I find that literally none of my friends get it. In this day and age it seems like nobody traditionally “dates.” Every guy I meet just wants to get in my pants or I’m talking to somebody for a few days and they disappear for no reason. Nobody understands the pain of being perpetually single. I’m much more independent because I’ve had to be. I just want to fall in love and get married. I’m so scared it won’t ever happen.
THANK YOU for this! I have been trying to tell people this for years and nobody ever gets what it’s like. When I was a freshman I had to hide my adderall in my shoes in the closet at the dorm. We’re definitely not lucky.
I just wanted to thank you for putting into words what I literally could not for 7 years. I am a rape survivor but I have also had very similar situations like yours happen too. For years and years I’ve struggled to figure out what exactly to think of it or call it and you have helped me finally figure it out in a way. I feel like so many guys in this generation assume that all girls want sex and that it’s everything. Me? I’d much rather have a relationship but it seems all guys want is sex and they don’t seem to get it when you say no. I’ve literally said no other times and they are like ” what you don’t like it?” We’re allowed to say no. No means no. Why can’t some guys get that through their heads? It’s super frustrating to me because I literally haven’t dated anyone since high school because it seems most guys just would rather get in a girls pants than buy her dinner.

Yay! That’s so awesome! I’m glad to meet somebody else like me!
I’m an alumna initiate! And I’m under 30!
Harry Styles can totally pull it off and it is sexy AF on him.
